1. aren't the options already priced unfairly so you can't really make enough money for the risk you take ?
2. Just wanted to take a second to thank you for making, and posting these videos. They're top notch, and very clear, and concise. I'm seriously starting to think I'd be good at this, especially after having been a day / swing trader for the last couple of years! Keep'em coming. Love it!
3. In Trading naked calls/puts..we've to also consider the time value of the position we open, not just how far out of the money. The further Out of the money the strike the less the premium we collect. So tendency is we sell far out of the money but in big lots...that's the risk!
4. Hey Kirk. Quick question. I've gotten to understand stock options better after watching your videos. Looking into you website. I can sign up and get text messages of what to buy and then when to sell correct? Or do you just supply all the info for me to pick my own prices.
5. I have a Put credit spread and it is going against me. When I put the trade on my risk was limited. I don't understand how it is limited, because at this time if I closed the trade I would loose more than my initial supposed "risk". What if the short leg gets called out? Would I call out my long position to pay for the short side call out? What is the exit strategy. BTW this Put credit spread was put on to create an Iron condor from a Call credit spread that the market was threatening. Should Just sell another Call Credit spread to lessen my downside?
6. Great Video! I have a question. Do you have a video explaining how to input a credit spread/iron condor orders? Thanks!
7. What about the risk of someone exercising the option on the naked puts?
8. I really enjoyed your videos. Your videos really helped me to generate very nice income by trading options I do have one question/comment. Don't naked puts and calls take more margin requirement? By defining the risk by using credit spread, you can reduce the margin requirement. In other words, you can increase the number of option contracts with Iron condor using the same margin requirement as naked strangle so the Return on capital actually is better.
9. For the 3rd strategy (naked Puts and Calls bracketing), would I do 'Sell to Open' or 'Sell to Close' for the put order? and what about the call order?. Also, can I let it expire to take the profit if I know it will not escape the bracket?
   thank you
10. aren't naked calls and puts extremely risky as well? it seems like credit spreads and iron condors have a limited risk but the loss seems unlimited for the naked call/puts. Correct me if i'm wrong I'm new at this. Great video btw.
11. Hi, very nice video. My questions is If I sell necked puts or call . do I need to covered it before it expire ? because you are shorting these options. It is similar to shorting the stock right ? When you sort the stock you need to cover it. Please explain it to me or if you have any video that explain this please send me the link . Thanks in Advance.
12. Great video! thanks for making it simple to understand.
13. Hey Option Alpha, excellent video about option strategies! Very informative and helpful. I'm currently using TD Webroker (Ameritrade) as my broker, and they don't seem to allow naked puts and calls... If I can't use that strategy for a market neutral position, iron condors would be my best bet correct?
14. I love this video, but I'd have to disagree with the statement about reducing risk with Naked Calls/Puts. I know of a few friends who've been burned by the naked selling strategy. I personally like selling naked for low beta securities, but I don't think being completely exposed on one end of the leg is proper risk management in the traditional sense. 
15. Hi Kirk. Very nice explanation. But I have a question - Suppose a stock(bullish) is trading @50 and I sold a far put of 42 @4, after few days stock splits to 50% and comes @25 then what will happen with 42 @4 naked put? Thinking of this for long time!!! and that's stopping me to step out for naked puts and call... Please clarify..Regards
16. Brief and clear explanation. For passive trading, which of these three is the best strategy?
17. The worst case scenario with Iron Condors seems if the stock trades too high or too low on either end you would break even. Is this true?
18. Isn't sellimg naked puts extremely risky? At least theoretically losses can be very high if the asset price goes in the wrong direction... And then combine them with naked calls? Maybe I am missing something, cwn you clarify?
19. +Option Alpha  It is great video for strategies or plane for monthly income.I am impressed by video.
20. This is a great video. So much clearer now is my option strategy understanding. Much to learn I have more videos must watch.
